[geo-discuss] switch2osm.org launched today

Thu Jan 26 21:57:37 UTC 2012

Dear Harry,

Just to say welcome to the list and that this is a really fantastic
initative -- all too often open-source or open data projects lack the
promotional and "business-friendly" activities to match their
technical and community ones.

Regards,

Rufus
